Pettis, Bassett&Co


To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal
In your paper of June am quoted saying
referring TO the of George Forsinger VS.
The Order of Chosen Friends) ''Tnere is no ply
stefan in the city of Indianapolis capable OF max
ing an examination of your injuries" 1t does not
seem possible that anything said written
by me could be distorted into such an assertion.
The case in question was referred by me to an
Indianapolis physician, in whom l had conf
dence requesting him to associate himself with
another Indianapolis phi ysician of acknowledged
ability in such cases. and prepare a joint report
upon the condition of Mr.. Forsinger This
done. and 10 was upon this report, thus obtained,
that the decision Of the supreme officers of the
order was based. Personally am a stranger to
the majority Of the medical gentlemen OF your
city but their reputation for knowledge, skill
and integrity is such. and we'll known, that
the item in your paper above referred TO. places
me in an extremely undesirable position, the
more so ms am not conscious of having
even thought of such reflection upon the pro-
fession OF Indianapolis the above quotation
would imply. G. s. PIxLEY.

speaking nf the latest Indian outbreak in Ari-
IONA. sid: sit is the result or drunken row
which led to feud between two bands of Indians
in the San Carlos agency. Troops are in pursuit,
and will continue until the Indians captured

had been entirely among the Indians These
Indians are in way connected with the

all been removed. These disturbances are liable
to occur as long AS they get liquor"

Sp1endOrs of Vanderbilt's Steam
Yacht.

New York Letter: The largest
steam yacht yet built is William K.
Vanderbilt's new boat, the Alva,
which is two hundred and eighty-five
feet long. 1t cost the owner OF the
Alva upwards of twelve hundred dol
lars a month to run the Alva on an
ocean voyage without spending any
money on provisions tor himself and
guests. As a fashionable thing cam
not serve its purpose without being
displayed. the cost of entertaining
guests enters as the biggest bill in
steam yachting. 1t is said that Van
derbilt on the A)va and Jay Gould
on the At:lanta frequently spend two
hundred dollars day fer their sport.
When the Alva goes to sea she carries
pilot, two engineers, two firemen, q
steward, q cook and seven sailors
Besides these there are servants in
proportion to the number of guests.
The boat is not unjustly called a
floating palace, for it is so arranged
internally that the owner and his
friends may live almost exactly as
they do ON shore. The dining saloon,
for instance, is eighteen by thirty-one
feet in measurement. There is a we'll
stocked library, and ten suites OF
rooms in each of which is included a
sitting room, chamber and bath room.
And there is besides q feature which
is probably to be found on no other
yacht in the world; q nursery for
children and governesses.

A Remarkable Historic Find.

From the New York Sun.
Eight years before Columbus discov.
cred America an old Portuguese sail.
or named Diego Cam went cruising
down the coast of West Africa until
he came to a great river, on whose
south bank he set up a big white
stone and carved an inscription upon
it ccie brating his discovery. 1t was
the mighty Congo, and for many years
the famous Pedra Padrao stood on
the shore bearing silent witness to the
old sailors achievement. Years later,
when all eyes were turned to the new
world, the Congo was almost forgot.
ten. and when it next attracted notice
the Pedra Padrao had disappeared.
The spot where it stood has for cent
uries been known AS Padrao Point.
Three or four months ago Baron Won
Schwerin. the Swedish traveller, heard
from some natives of large fetch
stone hidden III the tall jungle grass
at some distance from the beach. 1t
was only after long palavers with the
chiefs that he obtained permission to
visit the revered object. He found,
to his delight, the veritablo Pedra Pa
drao, it's well-known inscription only
partially effaced. This famous monu.
ment of a great discovery will doubt
less be treasured hereafter as one of the
most interesting relics of the early
navigatOrs.

The Fires In liichlran.

Special dispatch: Forest fires are report
ed from many points in Michigan, At
Grand Haven l, 400 acres back OF the
cemetery were burned over, and the fire is
still raging southeast of the city. Fires
arc reported as very bad around Burchs
mill near Cedar Springs. At Coleman the
charcoal klns and lot OF wood were
burned. In the vacinity of Cheboygan,
valuable Pine, FENCES and barns
have been destroyed. Fire at Garden
City, a village in Big Bay de Noque, re-
Gently, destroyed the hotel and livery sta

buildings. A fortunate change OF wind
saved the business part of the town. Fires
are raging in the northern part of Kent
county. At Sand Lake the fire got into
the pine slashing, and for some time came
near devourinc tho village. The woods
and folds in every direction about Cedar
Springs are on fire, and pretty much every
body is engaged in fighting the flames, try
ing to save farm property. Fire broke out
in the pineres near Grandville, and there
is danger OF the village burning up Fires
are also burning in the marshes near the
city. St. Ignace was threatened with de-
struction, but a change in the wind saved

Shocked at His Fathers Shame.
From the London Telegraph.


A tragical suicide, which has touch
of romance about it, has just occurr-
ed at the prison OF k;trthaus, near
Prague. A young soldier named
Kazowsky was standing guard there.
In his early youth he had lost his
father, not through death, but in
far more melancholy way. His father
had committed murder, had been
pronounced guilty, and condemned to
twenty years. hard labor. The young
son was then 8 years old, and his
fathers features remained firmly inn
printed upon his memory, as well rs the
whole painful impression OF the event,
which produced q severe shock upon
his youthful mind. While standing
sentry before the prison of Karthaus,
and seeing the conv1cts led past him
on their way to the open air, he rec
ognized in one of the hoary criminals
his own father. He spoke no word,
neither did he discover himself to his
father, but on being relieved from his
post he quietly loaded his gun and
DISCHARGED a bullet at his head. Dying,
he confessed to his &C mrades the hor-
riable discovery he had made, and
which had driven him to seek death
at his own hands.
